Falcons Cut Ties With 2 Players, Including 1 Who Played 17 Snaps Yesterday

The Atlanta Falcons are making a pattern of this. For the second time recently, they’ve cut a player who just played heavy snaps for them a few days earlier. In this case, it was quick — on Monday, they cut Jaden Ivey, who played 17 snaps on Sunday. They also parted ways with Drake Jackson. The Falcons’ moves were officially part of the NFL’s transaction log on Monday and emerged around 4 p.m. ET. The Falcons have released LB Jared Ivey (who played 17 snaps yesterday) and DE Drake Jackson.
